Mount Vernon Library Commons 
The Designs for the Library, Parking Facility
 and Community Center are Taking Shape!

The Foundation was originally created to undertake fund raising for a new library facility. The scope of activity has been expanded to support programs and other needs within the current library until the new facility is constructed.​

Our Mission

The Mount Vernon Library Foundation's principal mission is to foster community support for the Library, its Board, and its Staff. The Foundation serves to solicit, receive, manage, and disburse corporate and individual gifts and grants for the enhancement of library facilities, materials, services and programs, including support of the efforts to build a new library building for Mount Vernon and the region. The Foundation believes strongly that a good library is an essential public service.
